What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MA


I want to put my professional skills on my business card; the skills mostly relate to Microsoft technologies - C#, ASP.NET, etc.

Are there any trademark issues with doing this?

Do you have any MS certifications in technology? If you do, you are allowed to use a logo provided by Microsoft. :cool:

The name of the technologies, even if they are trademarks, for purely descriptive use is not going to be a problem.
You want to avoid any confusion that you are supported or endorsed by Microsoft.

Here's Microsoft's own guidance on the subject: http://www.asp.net/terms-of-use/trademarks
